PhD prospects with my profile
Folks here have gotten so disgustingly selfish. They come here to take take and take information, but most who get in don't share information. 2026 profiles and results opened for more than a month, most who have been asking many panicked questions in the sweat thread, almost none of them thought it wise to at least share the profiles that got them in. I hope you won't be like this in the future. To your question, is it my eyes or is a GRE score missing from your post? -
